Gregory Papadin's brother jumped into the ocean with Gregory's iPhone 5 in a waterproof case, though when he tried to throw the phone back to him, the brother accidentally dropped in the water.

Miraculously, the phone survived the trip to the bottom of the ocean, and managed to capture video the whole way down. The owner of the boat, used to deep underwater diving, jumped in the water and saved the phone. In the process, the boat owner inadvertently took the coolest underwater selfie.
